Kuala Lumpur (VNA) - Following the success of the 14th National Party Congress which wrapped up on January 23 afternoon, Vietnamese expatriates and students in Malaysia have expressed optimism and strong confidence that the country will continue to move steadily forward on its development path in a new era, while reaffirming their desire to contribute to this important journey.
Tran Thi Chang, President of the Malaysia–Vietnam Friendship Association (MVFA), said that the Vietnamese community in Malaysia closely followed the Congress and felt reassured by a well-organised, serious and highly responsible event. The success of the Congress, she noted, has further strengthened public trust, including that of overseas Vietnamese, in the Party and State’s firm leadership, clear strategic orientation, and the country’s long-term development prospects.
She emphasised that the key decisions adopted at this Congress are significant not only for Vietnam’s domestic development but also for advancing international integration and cooperation.
The Malaysia–Vietnam Friendship Association will continue to serve as an effective bridge between the two countries' people, promoting exchanges, mutual understanding and practical cooperation across various fields.
Chang also expressed her confidence that the Communist Party of Vietnam, under the leadership of General Secretary To Lam, whom she described as resolute, decisive and highly responsible, will continue to guide the country toward strong and sustainable development, realise the vision toward 2045, and further enhance the nation’s position on the international stage.
Meanwhile, Ta Thi Hong Ngan, a master’s student at Spectrum International University College in Selangor, praised the information and communication work surrounding the 14th Congress, saying it effectively addressed the strong interest of both domestic and international audiences. She noted that the inclusion of feedback from overseas Vietnamese during the Congress’s preparation process represents progress in transparency and accountability toward the community.
According to her, the clear vision and development strategy set out by the Congress have reinforced public trust, particularly among the younger generation, while demonstrating continuity, stability and innovation in personnel work in line with the requirements of a new development phase.
Ngan showed her belief that the leadership selected by the Congress will continue to steer the country in the right direction amid Vietnam’s increasingly deep international integration, and voiced hope that greater attention will be given to education, human resources development and creating opportunities for young people to contribute to national development.
Sharing a similar view, Pham Tran Tieu My, a master’s student at Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), Kuala Lumpur campus, said the thorough and comprehensive preparation of the 14th Congress played a crucial role in its success.
